Has any thought been given to handling backups similarly to *mg*, rather than
sprinkling them all over the filesystem like *emacsen* do by default?
BACKUP FILES
Backup files have a ‘~’ character appended to the file name and are
created in the current working
directory by default. Whether to create backup files or not can be
toggled with the make-backup-files
command. The backup file location can either be in the current working
directory, or all backups can
be moved to a ~/.mg.d directory where files retain their path name to
retain uniqueness. Use the
backup-to-home-directory to alternate between these two locations.
Further, if any application creates
backup files in /tmp, these can be left with the leave-tmpdir-backups
command.
qemacs does the first, does not do the second.
Thanks!
